Stop forming inappropriate relationships with unbelievers. Can right and wrong be partners? Can light have anything in common with darkness? Can God’s temple contain false gods? Clearly, we are the temple of the living God. As God said, “I will live and walk among them. I will be their God,and they will be my people.” (2 Corinthians 6:14, 16 GWT)
Since we have these promises, dear friends, we need to cleanse ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit and live a holy life in the fear of God. (2 Corinthians 7:1 GWT)
What makes a believer the temple of God? Not holy living (behavior), but God’s Holy Spirit living in us (our inner being). ©tkbeyonddevo 2012
